So my partner and I aren’t having a baby just yet, we agreed TTC end of next year. But I’m having a little dilemma. I’ve been a big Nameberry for years since I was a kid, thinking of what I’d name my future children and creating list after list.
I’ve had firm favourites for so long but now every time I look at them or try to imagine what my children will be called (taking into consideration the names my partner likes) I just don’t like any of them anymore [name_m]Feel[/name_m] a bit lost, like I need a totally fresh set of names to work off.
So I wondered if people could give me suggestions? I like contemporary vintage names maybe a bit quirky. Old favourites were [name_f]Alice[/name_f], [name_m]Henry[/name_m], [name_f]Ivy[/name_f], [name_m]Arthur[/name_m], etc. However my partner favours more modern and unisex names ala [name_u]Avery[/name_u], [name_u]Quinn[/name_u], [name_f]Juno[/name_f], [name_f]Sienna[/name_f], [name_u]Seth[/name_u].
[name_f]Lila[/name_f], [name_f]Cora[/name_f], [name_u]Piper[/name_u], [name_u]Rowan[/name_u], [name_m]Ethan[/name_m], [name_u]Logan[/name_u], [name_m]Hugo[/name_m], [name_m]Milo[/name_m], [name_u]August[/name_u] and [name_m]Griffin[/name_m] I love but have either been used by close family and friends or don’t flow with the surname. It’s a long, Medieval English surname starting with a hard ‘G’.
[name_u]Harper[/name_u], [name_u]Aubrey[/name_u], [name_u]Sawyer[/name_u], [name_u]Arlo[/name_u] and [name_m]Levi[/name_m] I will put on my list! ”

[name_m]Leo[/name_m] and [name_u]Kit[/name_u] I love! [name_u]Elias[/name_u], [name_m]Dashiell[/name_m] and [name_u]Chase[/name_u] are also great for boys!
[name_f]Luna[/name_f] and [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] have always been favourites and family names. Also like [name_f]Mila[/name_f], [name_u]Wren[/name_u] and [name_f]Sadie[/name_f] but I think it’s just a disagreement of name taste with the SO as they’re not keen.
